A "Journal of Paintings" by Jon Conkey,
Themeworks was a "one-year-long" record of my progress in the art of "oil painting", and an attempt to paint 365 paintings in one year. Changing the monthly theme allowed me to focus on subjects I may not have otherwise painted. As an artist, I was looking for discovery and breakthroughs in my works through this daily practice.

# 59 Taos Gorge Trail

This view is a mile or so further up the trail from my last post, which is a few miles out from the rest area. I keep wanting to see what is around the next bend, but the day wears short on foot; a mountain bike would be a smart way to get around out here. JLC
